BurnThis: Have You Checked it Out?

Where do you go for your health and fitness support and motivation? I go several places but one of my new favorites is, BurnThis!

What is BurnThis you ask? Well I tried to think of a concise way to explain it and found that the BurnThis website explained it best:

“BurnThis combines cutting-edge photo sharing tools with an active social network to create a fitness super community that inspires and pushes you to be your healthiest, most fit self. We are not Facebook. We are not Instagram. We are not Twitter. This is not a popularity contest to see who gets the most likes, has the most friends, or posts the most beautiful image.

Our goal is singular and simple: to provide you with social tools that will proactively motivate you to live a healthy lifestyle through the support and encouragement of others who are going through the same challenges and experiences.”

Now as someone who works at living a healthy lifestyle everyday I find the BurnThis app and community completely amazing!

A few months ago after posting a picture on Instagram, I got an interesting comment from the co-founder of BurnThis. The first thing I thought was who is Anna Kohanski and what is BurnThis? Then I smiled because she mentioned that “We ♥ your posts. Super inspiring. We are building an amazing social fitness ambassadorship program and would love to discuss.” How awesome is that? But being me, that meant there was some research that needed to happen.

I downloaded the app ans within minutes I was beyond impressed and inspired! This was an amazing community who were focused on supporting and motivating one another! I have always struggled with Facebook because I wasn’t sure if people understood I was always posting running/fitness related pictures. I had the feeling that some people found them annoying or thought I was bragging, which was never the case. I could immediately see that it would not be the case with BurnThis, in fact it would be the exact opposite!

What I love most about BurnThis is seeing what others are doing to eat healthy or how they stay active. I find a lot of motivation from others posts! It makes me want to go out and be active!

With all of that said, I can’t go without saying that just like all other social platforms there are going to be some annoyances. It is a social network we all have different things that we find appropriate to post. You see it every day on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, BurnThis is no different. However, just like those other social media platforms, I just scroll past the posts I don’t find find motivation from.

I am honored that Anna reach out to me about BurnThis and mentioning ambassador program for this awesome community. In the past few months I am amazed at how much the community has grown, and I can only see it continuing! You don’t have to take my word for how awesome the app is either, check out what others are saying!

Check BurnThis out! I pretty sure you won’t be disappointed! I love my #FitFam! If you download it, add me and I would love to follow you back!
